Echostage, located in Washington, D.C., is a premier nightlife and concert venue. The largest of its kind in the city, its a 30,000 square foot building full equipped for large-scale, live music events. Formerly known as the DC Tunnel and DC Star, it underwent renovations in 2012 by Panorama Productions and Club Glow. While most of Echostage events involve Club Glow’s huge dance music DJ-events, the venue was renovated to be an all purpose venue made to host live bands, MC’s and any other events requiring a large-scale stage production.
Layout
Since the venue was taken over by new ownership, presentation, production and overall appeal has been the primary focus. Top-of-the-line sound design, advanced LED visual displays and unobstructed sight lines throughout the venue provide an atmosphere unmatched on the east coast.
Two 60 ft. bars run along each side of the dance floor and a photo pit provides close-up views in front of the stage. The back of the room features a raised “front of house” booth where an expert production team controls the show. Stairwells in the back corners of the dance floor lead to VIP. Mezzanines over-looking the dance floor run along each side of the room and host over (30) bottle service areas. Each mezzanine houses (1) bar and each bottle service area comfortably accommodates (8) people.
A smoking area exists in front of the venue with access coming from the back corner of the main floor next to the merchandise stand. Men’s and women’s bathrooms are located on each side of the dance floor through hallways that allow for easy crowd flow.
